"Insufficient Evidence"
Cowardly UK Police Drop Investigation into Bob Vylan's 'Death to the IDF' Glastonbury Chant
The UK is now just another satellite Muslim country. They are terrified of upsetting the locals, which now refers to millions of Muslims who have overtaken the country. A sad day indeed.
British police have concluded their investigation into punk-rap duo Bob Vylan over chants made during their performance at the Glastonbury Festival, announcing that no further action will be taken due to insufficient evidence.
The incident occurred in June during the band's set at the renowned music festival in Somerset, where frontman Bobby Vylan led the crowd in chanting "death, death to the IDF" - a reference to the Israel Defense Forces amid ongoing debates over the Israel-Gaza war. The performance drew international backlash, particularly from pro-Israel groups who accused the band of inciting hatred, prompting Avon and Somerset Police to launch a probe into potential violations of public order or hate speech laws.
After a months-long review, police stated on Tuesday that there was "insufficient evidence" to pursue charges, effectively closing the case. A spokesperson for Avon and Somerset Police confirmed the decision, emphasizing that the investigation had been thorough but ultimately found no grounds for prosecution.
Bob Vylan, known for their politically charged lyrics addressing issues like racism, inequality, and global conflicts, have not publicly commented on the police decision. The duo, consisting of Bobby Vylan and drummer Bobbie Vylan, has previously defended their outspoken stance on Palestine, framing it as part of broader anti-imperialist activism (read: Jew hatred).
Glastonbury Festival organizers have not issued a statement on the matter.
